This is a great Siralim write up. I got sucked in because my favorite game from childhood was Dragon Warrior Monsters and I’ve been chasing that high ever since. The structure is 1000% DWM if you’re looking for a retro gaming experience with monster raising.

wow! I’m glad you mentioned Symphony of War! It is such a great game— I found the squad formations super satisfying.

yeah, it hurts to think about but the writing is on the wall…

I feel like people are super fixated on how dumb it looks and less on it’s uncomfortable and often kinda gross to have something pressed against your skin for extended periods of time.

I know that Apple sets trends and whatever (like airpods) but i’m not sure they can pull off the “Apple VR-specific breakout pattern face.” I do enjoy the idea of the super rich peeps buying this to sit in their beige houses, headset clogging their pores.

if automation is your jam but the colonizing aspect isn’t (totally respect that), shapez may interest you. I think they have a free browser version to try it out too!
